Finally cutting

[stevesmi]

Down to 198 this morning. I am on the last hole in my belt and back into a 34 jean with room to spare. I have only lost about an eight of an inch on my other measurements (arms at 16” from 16 1/8, chest at 43.5 from 44. Waist went from 38” to 34.5. I notice the sub q fat around my middle has reduced some but I can still pinch a bunch of loose elastic like bunch of skin. I have never been truly obese so I’m not sure why I have what my wife calls post obese skin. All I know is that the stuff is very soft and jiggly. Can’t notice when standing but when I sit I can grab it and stretch it way out lol. Hope this goes away. Caliper says I’m 14% now. Handheld at the gym says %15. I know bioelectric is innaccurate but it’s good to have a baseline between both tests I suppose. Hope to be at 10% or lower by November sometime. Just wondering if I should lower the 2300 calories seeing as how I am down 13 pounds from where I started.

you can get yohimflame from n2bm and it will help burn off that stubborn fat

Great job man. I think this would be a great time to take your new stats and get a new caloric goal. This is a site that will help you figure out exactly what you need......

Thanks man. This pic is current. I have just been in my own head the past couple of years thinking why cut I'll just be skinny but in reality I cannot see my progress anyway. I was placed on TRT 4 months ago and everything is excellent there except my e2 is a little high. Lifts are suffering a little bit. Bench went from a max of 275 to a max of 255 but I'm sure once I'm done and start a nice long lean bulk that will come back. I'll keep posting progress in this thread. Thanks again!

I wouldn't worry about that small amount of strength loss. It's not muscle. It's just because you are depleted and not eating as much.

You are on a low calorie diet so you have less fuel to fuel your workouts then before. That's all. If you have a couple cheat meals, you would easily be able to bench your old max with no problem.

Keep up the awesome work man. I am following your log

Chest looks fuller but do the same poses each time

You are definitely doing a great progress there. I will agree with someone who mentioned above that you could use yohimflame for the stubborn fat - it really works and it is effective.

it is lower than 99% of guys out there who aren't crack addicts and that is an awesome job

shave your body, tan and oil up and you will be beach ready

Your body fat is around 12%

Your obliques are really starting to come in.

Keep grinding brother. Once you get to about 10% body fat, that's when your abs really start to pop.

You should be able to get there in a couple weeks. You are making awesome progress.

Looking great man. Keep at it. You are way ahead of most people at the gym.
